Probability with Spinners Quiz

A spinner is divided into 4 equal sections colored red, blue, green, and yellow. If you spin the spinner once, what is the probability of it landing on red?

If a spinner has 5 sections with numbers 1 through 5, what is the probability of spinning a number greater than 3?

What does the term "probability" mean?

• A certain event

• The likelihood of an event happening

• A rare event

• The outcome of an experiment

A spinner is divided into 8 equal parts. If 3 parts are red, 2 parts are blue, and 3 parts are green, what is the probability of landing on blue? (Don't simplify)

If a spinner has numbers 1 to 6, what is the probability of spinning an even number?

What does it mean if two events are equally likely?

• They will happen at the same time

• They have the same probability of happening

• They depend on each other

• One must happen before the other

A spinner is divided into 3 sections: 1 large section that is half the spinner and 2 equal smaller sections. What is the probability of landing on one of the smaller sections?

If a spinner has 8 sections, each with a different color, what is the probability of spinning and landing on a primary color (red, blue, or yellow)?

What is the probability of not landing on green if a spinner is divided into 4 equal parts colored red, blue, green, and yellow?

Comparing the likelihood of events, which is more probable: landing on a number greater than 2 on a spinner numbered 1 to 4, or landing on a red section in a spinner divided into 4 equal parts with only one red section?

• Landing on a number greater than 2

• Landing on a red section

• Both are equally likely

• It is impossible to determine
